Abrams was sooo adorable! He was such a goofy puppy and seemed to dig that water

Menchi pretty much thought the water was gross and so were all the dogs that liked the water.

Squash fell in a few times when it got deeper than he expected. But being Squash he took it in stride

Seal spent the day looking like a baby seal and stealing other dogs toys. She found it great, other dogs were sad

ALL DONE

Those are all fabulous, thanks for sharing! I saw the 1st one of Squash on flickr and loved it, but they're all wonderful.

I wish I lived close enough to come! Looks like fun and it's great to see all the dogs together.

I LOVE your pictures!
It looks like everyone had so much fun.

I still think it's hilarious that we were together for a week and neither of us took any pictures.

And once again, I love all these pictures!!

I love, love, love all of these pictures.

We so need to have many, many more get-togethers with all these very photogenic dogs.

AWESOME pictures!

And omigosh, in that picture with Abrams and the bottle, he looks like a drowned rat. :rofl1: Water dog he may be, but only when his feet can touch the bottom, kthx

Great pics! Now I'm sad that I couldn't afford to go... Riley could have played Tiger Shark to Squash's Polar Bear...

How far away is the park from Northwestern Univ. and/or Skokie? Sis and I will probably be heading that way around the end of October, and I always bring Riley so we can scooter and/or walk along the lake while Sis competes in a fencing tournament.

I was cracking up at all the Abrams pictures! The rest are on FB and Flickr. He makes the best faces!

I KNOW! How was that possible? I just never even touched my camera and I don't know why.

About 40 minutes give or take! PM me if you want to try and meet up!

That picture of him with the ball!!!!!! :rofl1: :rofl1: :rofl1:

God my dog is a huge dork.

This thread is full of the happiest dogs ever! Looks like everyone had so much fun! Awesome pictures, as usual.

Epic. Everyone looks like that had such a great time <3

Worth the wait for the pics, love them. Omg, Squash.........:hail:

Just that.

Wow, those were awesome! I loved the pics & the captions! As soon as I saw one pic, I couldn't wait to see another. Thank for sharing a great time!

I love the pictures and we had such a great time!!! Can't wait for next year!

I have pics to share -- does anyone who attended mind if I post PEOPLE pictures?! I got some group shots!
